Based on the excerpt from Virginia Woolf's 'To the
Lighthouse': '“So she looked over her shoulder, at the
town. The lights were rippling and running as if they
were drops of silver water held firm in a wind. And all
the poverty, all the suffering had turned to that, Mrs.
Ramsay thought. To the Lighthouse, she said to herself,
raising her hand as if to let the bird fly free.' In the
context of this passage, what does the term 'lighthouse'
metaphorically represent in terms of the English
vocabulary for objects and parts of the house?
